AIBU?
To not want to go on holiday or am I cutting my nose off to spite my face?

Due to go on holiday in the last week of the holidays with the larger extended family. I'm dreading it. It's dh's family.
Tonight DH started a monumental row over nothing, and I mean nothing. It was a case of he instigated it for the sake of having a row and the more perplexed I got about it and said I didn't want to have a row because there is nothing to fight about the more he exploded.
I now feel sick at the prospect of spending a week with him and his family in a place I would not be able to get away from. But if u don't go the kids can't go and they're looking forward to it.
Aibu and wwyd?

Books sound appealing but He won't ever apologise. You see everything is my fault. Everything. From his grandparents being in their 90s to mine being terminally ill to my severe health issues to his unemployment...all my fault.
Lucky aren't I.

Fuck the holiday why do you stay with him?! God he sounds horrible!
I would go for the children but silent treatment him all the way. I would act like he was literally not there for the whole 'holiday'. Thinks he can play up like that and everything be lovely while away with his family... The shit!

With health issues and husband's unemployment I imagine just taking the children on holiday elsewhere might not be practicable.
I'd go through with the holiday, communicate minimally with him and then figure out what you're going to do next.
I feel for you. He sounds horrible to live with and you shouldn't have to put up with that treatment.

This sounds absolutely awful for you. What are the implications of not going at all? I know the kids would be disappointed but ffs - you have a life too and the thought of you being so miserable through no fault of your own is just too depressing!
He sounds like a monumental shit - do you really foresee spending the rest of your precious life like this?
